[yfx4]

You DID get an answer: The first one by Seilerbird

After that it was fun.

Thanks a lot everyone, ask a dumb question and !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'll go somewhere else and maybe get an answer.

It was not a dumb question and my answer was serious.

Jerry, please don't take offense.  We were just having fun.

Thanks Seilerbird, I thought that but I still don't know the difference in 3G and 4G phones.
I know I have a 2G Ford V-10 engine and the 3G is a 3 valve engine, what changed on the phones to make them 4G.

Excellent link, Fred.    Thanks.

Thanks Fred, now that's the response I was looking for. Very informative.

Now if I could just figure out how to turn this darn thing on  ;D

What is an 'H?'

 

[GeorgeT]

It refers to the frequency range, ie: 3G= 3000mhz, 4G=4000mhz, at least in a cellphone.  The higher the frequency, the less traffic on the network=faster user speeds.

Sorry, you're not even close.

My grandfather told me that it's what you say if you want the mule to turn left, IIRC.

You had a 50/50 chance of being right (which is the way a mule would go if you yelled GEE), but you were wrong.

I spent many hours working a team (horses, not mules) as a farm kid.

Maybe grandpa had a sense of humor

    Musta been "Haw" then.  dyslexic, aspergers, generally wrong.

Maybe he grew up in Left Virginia.  ;D

Close, left Mississippi, near Memphis.  I only met him twice, more than 50 years ago.  The first time he had mules to work the cottonfields; the second time he had a gray Ford tractor with red wheels and electricity but no indoor plumbing.  He kept the mules 'til he died, then I don't know what happened to them.  Gee Right; Haw Left; Gee right; Haw Left; wonder if I can remember that or why I would want to?

Gee, why do they still use wooden bats? 

 

[ceemike]

Taoshum, that reminds me of the old joke about the long time sea captain who, every morning, would unlock a desk drawer, take out a piece of paper & read it, put it back in the drawer & lock it.  After he died his crew wanted to know what was on the piece of paper.  They unlocked the drawer, took it out & read "Port is left, Starboard is right."

BTW, a G is ? ? ?  .    ;D

 

[taoshum]

AND, the amazing thing is that port and starboard don't change... no matter where you are on the ship.  L and R change all the time, except for the mule, maybe; If I yell Gee at a mule from behind it will turn to the right; if I yell Gee at a mule standing in front of the mule which way does he turn?  LOL
